This Standard sets out requirements for the safety aspects, construction, testing, operation and maintenance of non-flammable medical gas pipeline systems used for patient care, including therapeutic, diagnostic and prophylactic applications, and for operating surgical tools. Non-flammable medical gas pipeline systems include suction pipeline systems.The Standard is intended also to apply to suction systems for day care centres and clinical situations but does not apply to suction systems for laboratories or hospital dental units. The supply of oxygen from pressure swing absorption and similar techniques is also not covered in this Standard.Some requirements are given for the source of supply for the pipeline system as well as those for the pipeline system itself and the terminal units and related warning systems.The Standard also gives requirements for operating room pendants, columns and booms.NOTE: Patient care encompasses both medical and dental applications.
